Austin 1300 Will it Run? Eps.12 ado16 Restoration

Jan 2020 - The rebuilt seized engine was ready for starting for the first time in 40 years. The internals had the bare minimum replaced to save money. Every nut and bolt had been removed at some point. Would it run?..

The content is a mix of photo's, video & timelapse.

Note: This is not intended to be a tutorial, I'm an amateur DIY'er on a tight budget showing my work in progress of an oily rag restoration of the Austin. Body will come later. Bear in mind that my methods are not necessarily the best.. Hope you enjoy the video!
